What a wonderful little book.(Page 127 is best)Is it not about time somebody did another book.
Or would it not sell so therefore nobody will publish it.

This evolved from a series Alex wrote as a resulot of a commission I gave him for MBM back in the early 1990s. The books you can buy are part of the original print run (I think) -- certainly it was a slow seller. Drawings were all hand done in those days, loads and loads of work.

Alex would be the man to persuade to add the next period but I think he is still traumatised after gathering all the shreds of evidence for the first one!

I bought it when I was looking to replace the P32 in 1999. Helped me shortlist 5 aft cabin boats very useful too.

I must admit that I bought my copy when it was remaindered in a chandlery sale,but for those of us that can't afford new boats its invaluable. And its also helps with all those trivia questions that come up on here.
